You have a Type 99 Jap MG? You suck.
is that that one with the metal stripper feed?
No the Type 96 (6.5 Jap) and Type 99 (7.7 Jap) Nambu light machineguns are very similar to a Czech VZ26/VZ30 and the Bren Guns derived from them. Top mounted magazine. Ejects out the bottom. Quick change barrels.
Maybe and original scope too. except this barrel is 308. feeds em like a charm and much cheaper than 7.7
Randy you're likely thinking of the Type 92 heavy machinegun (nicknamed the 'woodpecker' by our guys due to its slow steady rate of fire). It's a Hotchkiss based design that uses metal stripper trays. There were some other Jap guns (i.e. the Type 3) that also used this system. The Japs also had an mg with a hopper that took 6 round Mauser style stripper clips stacked on top of each other. That allowed riflemen to provide their ammo (clipped for use in their Arisaka bolt guns) to the machine gun if needed. The Japs also had Lewis Guns chambered in .303 Brit (but called 7.7 rimmed just to confuse logistics)....
That you still working it hard?I need to clean this muzzle loader. i know this. if i ever buy another used gun i will take this thing with me.

Yessir, you suck.
Ahh well.
We all suck at something
I've been checking DSA website every day for Israeli FAL light barrels. They're back in stock. I got one coming. Who'd a thunk the "Democratic Socialist of America" would be into guns?
Just you?
Or does that go for everyone else
Plan-b
Canada is a 3rd world shit hole. Change my mind
back in the '80s, I saw crates of that Jap ammo and it won't always chamber in an Arisocky, rim thickness I think.
When I am Emperor, I'll annex you all and arm you properly.
In the 90s In Canada the Norinco 1911s were like 200.00 usd and m14 clones
Could be shipped to your door
A Canadian guy at work told me
Back then
Things changed since then.

In the 80s you could walk into a Canadian tire and walk out with a rifle and boolets. Things have definitely changed here. Not for the better.
The japs did that to themselves. In WWII they had 7.7 rimless (for the type 99 bolt rifles plus some machineguns), 7.7 rimmed (for their .303 Lewis copies), and 7.7 'semi-rimmed' (for a couple machineguns). That plus 6.5 for a few remaining type 38 rifles and a few other machineguns. A logistics nightmare. Good.
The japs did plenty of inexplicable things
they like the krauts they over extended themselves before consolidating what they already took
